Following our initial coverage of Full Sail alumni involved with this year’s GRAMMY nominees, we’re happy to announce an expanded list of grad contributions to the albums and singles in contention at the 55thGRAMMY Awards. In total, 61 graduates were credited on 47 artist releases in 36 different categories.

Among this group, two will be in contention to receive their own statues on Grammy night. Calvin Bailiff (Recording Arts, 2004) and Andrew Coleman (Recording Arts, 1995) have both been nominated for their work as engineers on Frank Ocean’s hit album Channel Orange in the category of Album of the Year.

Alumni were credited on a number of other notable projects – including collaborations with artists like Beyonce, Jack White, Florence & the Machine, and Taylor Swift – and we’ll be following the results of the awards on campus this Sunday at the 2013 GRAMMY Celebration. This event is open to students from all degree programs, and will be held at 8:00 p.m. in Full Sail Live 1.
